Ok, this place is quite pleasant for a concert. It is a bit…read moreof a jaunt from MPLS, but for the event that you are truly into, it's worth the trip. Built out of the local quarry, the amphitheater provides a wonderful and intimate event where there really isn't a bad seat in the house. Getting in and out was comparatively easy (think of getting out of RenFest that can take over an hour). The property also has food trucks available to provide local fare which certainly beats your typical crappy stadium/event options. If something that piques my interest there, I will be heading there again

BEAUTIFUL facility! Went to a concert here this weekend. We bought the extra VIP tickets which…read moregets you a flushing toilet, bar with roof and nice seating near the stage outside, but also appetizers which I knew nothing about. Chicken wings, meatballs, cheese, meat crackers platter, ham & turkey sandwiches, roll ups and chips. Prices of drink was quite high $14.00 for liquor and $11.00 for a beer. $4.00 bottled water which they keep the lid, odd. we were told it is ZZ Top's rule. On water?? We had seats in row L which were awesome but there seriously is not a bad seat in the place. If the weather would have been nicer it would have been extra great with the quarry and fountains, such a pretty area. We will defiantly be back for another show one day.

I hope someday to see my sunshine on the big screen! I'm not sure if he still has interest, but he once wanted to be an actor! I was planning on signing him up with the paramount theatre in downtown, but he moved away. He is so handsome he will make it on the big screen if he wants. The snacks here are expensive, but the popcorn is worth it and the larges allow a refill that we usually took home as one huge thing of popcorn is more than enough to get a person or two maybe even three through a 90 minute movie. The seating is extremely comfortable. I have been going to the movies since I went in 1st grade to watch Hagrid take Harry away to Hogwarts.

The St Cloud area was, and still is one of the Country's largest suppliers of granite. When you love things such as old cobblestone streets, and old stone buildings as much as I do, sometimes you begin to wonder about what different types of stone were quarried and used the most in your area. While St Cloud is by no means a small city, the museum, as well as where the former and present day quarries are is off the path a bit. I was blown away by the exibits at this museum, I'd been expecting just a small museum with small displays. Instead the exibits were huge, and they have a 2 story tall interactive exibit on the quarry's. There was alot of other Central Minnesota history covered with big exibits as well. If you're out in this area and are intersted in Minnesota History, or are a fan of old tyme construction materials I'm sure you'll find this to be a great museum. I think this would be a fun museum for kids as well.

If you're from out of town, you should make the time to check out the Stearns History Museum. It…read morehas exhibits that are surprising for a mid-size town museum. Unfortunately, for those of us who live in the area, the exhibits seldom change. As a result, if you were to go here repeatedly, you'd end up seeing the same thing. Having said that, there are things to recommend. The park surrounding the museum has nice walking paths that are great for a summer afternoon walk. Inside, you'll find a fairly elaborate exhibit of granite quarrying (common to Granite City). You'll also find a nature exhibit that features the flora and fauna common to Central Minnesota. Our children enjoy this section of the museum. There are other exhibits as well, but I'd like to keep some of it a surprise for you to find when you visit. In addition, one of the gold mines at the museum for locals is the library which has extensive materials and resources for doing family research, especially if your family has ties to Central Minnesota. You could spend hours here researching and learning about family members from the area.

I have found…read moremany many uses for beeswax, but the primary usage for myself is creating skin care DIY products. Its fantastic for wood as well. I've read an entire book front to back with tons of different ways to use beeswax. I've even made an encaustic wax painting with it. They have a lot of other raw ingredients to select from. My son and I always loved coming here to get some natural ingredients for many things we liked to make at home ranging from Glycerites, tea, essential oil, and bath bombs.

The produce is always beautifully arranged, they have a decent bulk section, and I hear they will be expanding soon! It's open to everyone, so don't be intimidated if you're not a member - it's totally okay! They also have an ATM on site with a $1 service fee, which is where I often stop to get my cash when I'm in town. Katie (the manager) is super funny and knowledgeable. All of the employees and volunteers are very friendly and willing to help. I've never felt intimidated shopping there. It has a nice, community vibe.
